Heavy Bleeding and Cramping While on the Mirena
Posted over a year ago
I have been on the Mirena for a little over a year. Up until now i have never had any problems with it but The past four weeks i have had light spotting mild cramping and backache. This morning when i woke the bleeding has turned to heavy bright red the cramping and backache is more severe and my legs ache. Has anyone else experienced this also please let me know.
Angelgurl28422 - Hey I just got my Mirena the 27th of Feb.I was due to start mt period on the 4th and of course it was right on time.Its not like my usual monthly though its lighter but still bright red.The first few days I just felt lazy but now my legs are killing me.They feel like I have been riding a horse for hours.Sorry to hear yours has started to give you trouble but yours is the only question that has been anywhere near my plight.Angel
Cb2007 - I got Mirena 3 weeks ago and I have been bleeding everyday since, it hasn't been too heavy but it's really starting to get to me, I hate this thing and I wish I had never gotten it. The week before I got Mirena I had my period so I have been bleeding for 4 whole weeks now. This is coming in between my sex life and my boyfriend hates it and wants it taken out. Last week I also had severe back pain, so bad that I couldn't move without screaming, I couldn't do anything it was that severe, I want to get it taken out but I fear that if I do it is prolly just gon make the bleeding worse for longer, I'm trying to wait it out but I really strongly wish I would have gotten the DEPO shot instead...
